I hit $500 and a WIN ALL for $180 on 100X a couple weeks ago but since then, 100X hasn't been all that great for me. Been taking huge hits lately. All though the odds are bad, I kinda wanna try Super Millions. Seems like we here in the FL Panhandle get forgotten compared to many of the winners down in central FL.

Very nice prototype, but I'd rather the $$ symbol be WIN or a moneybag or something easier. Aside from that nitpicking, I suggested these kinds of games to the Lottery years ago and was ignored. Would hope they're listening now and taking suggestions from these player surveys; they've got to make the game selection a little more diverse. Better odds for lower-tier prizes aren't bad, either.

I also agree with biggwinner that if you are going to get a roll it is best to get CA Black or Diamond Millionaire (same payout table as CA Black), or maybe even the $20 game. Odds of $500 is 1 in 1283 and $1000 is 1 in 2857, so on average 1 in 21 rolls will have a prize of $500 or more. As for the $20 game, There are 1 in 11 odds for a roll to have a prize worth over $500 (barring if multiple mid-tier prizes are on the same roll). The lottery is a gamble, if you can spend $100 more at $60

Ohio Classic Lotto goes more than 2 years without winnerReply
Still doesn't seem to be much of any sales frenzy at all. I wonder what it'll take for the syndicates or high roller to get involved like a couple decades ago in VA: http://www.nytimes.com/1992/02/25/us/group-invests-5-million-to-hedge-bets-in-lottery.html?pagewanted=all src=pm The OCL cash JP is more than twice the odds on the game. This is the range where someone might consider a brute force attack and try to buy all combos, especially with low competing sales. Maybe they'll wait till

I took one and I'm hoping it pays off. I still have 7 more draws on the tickets I purchased. Compared to MM 18.5 miilion to 1 odds for the 2nd tier prize level it's a no brainer at least for me.

That does'nt seem too bad since some players may buy a few tickets. Now the 1 in 75 million odds for getting a extra pickle on your Mcdonalds cheeseburger are insane.

I was wondering the exact same thing. With those low odds compared to other lotteries, u would figure it would have hit sometime after it passed $30 million with the help of people from neighboring states crossing over for a chance at that jackpot.

Would you be happy winning a lottery jackpot of any amount?Reply
I do not play MM and PB everyday or any lottery game. Yes, the odds are insane, but you can still play them once a year for $1 and $2.

Wisconsin Lottery kicks off new '5 Card Cash'Reply
Nowadays lottery drawing games are looking more like instant scratch off games when it comes to prizes and odds. Oh, I forgot Powerball is a $2 premium lottery game.
